Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are from a small community in St. Louis, Missouri. My students come from a variety of different backgrounds. Some come from single-parent homes, high poverty environments, or homes that speak more than one language. Some of my students come to school with high attention and behavioral needs. The community is very close, and there is a sense of pride for our community and school!

As a school, our goal is for every student to discover who they are and feel empowered.

Each year my classroom is full of diverse learners and personalities. My students benefit from hands-on learning and thrive when they are given opportunities to move around and try something new.

My Project

As I wrap up my seventh year as a classroom teacher, I have seen an increased need for support with students struggling to manage emotions or deal with stress. Now more than ever children need opportunities to learn how to cope when challenges arise.

A sensory table would provide unique sensory experiences with various materials and objects.

It would be an incredible tool to help students develop strategies to cool down or focus. It could also be used to practice literacy and math skills, as well! Children in first grade still have such a sense of wonder. There are endless possibilities for how we could use this learning tool!
